Applescript - Send cues to Qlab.

I get a warning notification when I try running the script called Send cues to Qlab.
"Script Error. Not authorized to send apple events to Qlab"
How do I authorize LXConsole to send Apple Events ?

This is one of Apple's new privacy controls in Mojave. It is supposed to ask you to allow Apple Events between LXConsole and QLab. Then, LXConsole (to QLab) will appear in System Preferences->Security and Privacy->Privacy->Automation.

Try the latest build of LXConsole and see if this triggers the system request for permission.

Yup, an update of both Mojave and LXConsole to latest build fixed that.

I got up a window with a question from "Data Exchange" and clicked "allow".

But I then was reminded of an old problem I recognize since years back.

The script called "Send cues to Qlab" always stops early with this message:

"Script errror"
"Qlab got an error: Could not make a cue of type 'MSC'"
-
But if I run the script called: Send cues to Qlab3 it works fine even though I run Qlab 4.

The original script dates back to QLab 2. It's time to remove it. Then there will be only one and no confusion.
